Kills of the Week

The gankers of highsec have been inspired lately. We've got a lot of ground to cover today. In fact, some of the kills right along the edge of the week will need to be covered in next week's Kills of the Week post. Let's not waste any time. Here are some remarkable ganks from the week of March 30th @ 00:00 EVEtime through April 5th @ 23:59 EVEtime.

You know all of those "new players" the carebear apologists want to protect? baba Ataru is one of them. baba was only 11 days into the game when his Orca, packed with ice, got popped by Agents Sophia Soprano, Jared Lennox, Mildron Klinker, loyalanon, Sarthana, Hottentott, Capt Starfox, Jaxi Wreckful, Mad Fatchick Killer, Scylla ofMessia, Rollotamasi, and Nitetime Video. It might have been baba's first Orca, but it was fit like babby's first Orca. You see? Even 11 day-old characters have plenty of isk for a permit.

Nevris striker was awoxed by Agent Alexsus Neutralius Reppious. I was informed by Agent Relan Panacan that an anonymous Tengoo Uninstallation Service member was responsible for this awox. I don't want to unfairly profile anyone, but here's a tip for all of you background-checking corp recruiters out there: It's probably not a good idea to let someone in your corp if they have "Neutralius Reppious" in their name.

Logistics pilots are so noble, always giving to others without asking for anything in return. Senity Artwik lost a 1.3 billion isk Scimitar to Agents Scylla ofMessia, Sarthana, loyalanon, and Sophia Soprano. Senity's crime? Going AFK in highsec without a permit, while in possession of a decadent, insufficiently-tanked ship. Before the carebears start crying tears for Senity's Scimitar, consider this: He was AFK for at least three hours before the kill. Maybe he was having trouble disconnecting. Our Agents escorted him to the nearest station by way of the pod express.

HiddenFire's mining Rokh was particularly disgusting. Agents loyalanon, Capt Starfox, Sarthana, Pestario Vargas, Scylla ofMessia, and Sophia Soprano didn't want any children to see, so they quickly removed it from Halaima. It gets worse, though. How new must this player be to fit a mining Rokh like that? Or to use a mining Rokh at all?

A month from now, HiddenFire will have been mining in highsec for 10 years. Brutal.

HiddenFire, put a tank on your ships, and for goodness sake, put some clothes on. We're trying to make highsec decent. Don't you know there are children as young as four years old mining here?

Could have been someone who bought a character on the bazaar trying to pay to win, I have seen some quite hilarious kill mails from players like that.

Who the hell goes AFK in a 1B+ incursion fit logi?

The very first Orca on this article is a perfect example of what I'm talking about, it isn't even fit. How much damage did it take about 50k? My production alt's orca I use for hauling has over 250k EHP... But then again I take the time to properly fit the ships that I fly.

BOTH Russian IP's. BOTH illegal isk services. BOTH would utilize bots and AFKers.

Coincidence? Possible, except I have seen many others that have been ganked and a good share of them had guess what, RUSSIAN PROFILES! Seen several insane multiboxers, with guess what, you guessed it, RUSSIAN PROFILES!

Not profiling here, but if it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck.
